That wraps up the Pokemon Banpresto releases for August!
For those who might be a little disappointed with August’s releases, never fear, for we have Halloween and more Eeveelutions in the near future.
Until next time!
Ah, wished I could play on one of the UFO catchers myself! TwT
I mean, it would be so fun for once not to just order a Totodile plushie but actually win it myself. Hope I might be lucky once I get to visit Japan in the future and there will be some nice prizes for myself to get. X3
Definitely will contact JapanStuffs via email near the release time of the Kororin friends series release again and ask if they might be able to win me a Totodile. <X3
I bet if you ask, she will be able to help!
I think I asked you before but are others besides yourself able to set an icon here? =3
